Hello friends! Today my fabulous sister-in-law of Little Bean Shop is debuting <a href="http://www.littlebeanblog.com/2014/07/nap-mat-nap-mat-zzzzzz.html">a new line of adorable nap mats</a> and I had to share them with y'all.  I'm so excited about these! <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.littlebeanshop.com/default.asp"><img alt="http://www.littlebeanshop.com/default.asp" border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUtjOMdic7qVtcyuCikjNmZgiV1xqMHA8MM0wZOiS0oit9JpBATRRvNI5SV0rjFCeuK_lyDwYjBOerGKrbaFstIjkW6paYV6AM4HsghjXHjVuPVK4MUHG7wxN0QM8m2cExNgnotutkm2g/s1600/Little+Bean+Nap+Mats.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>  <br /><br />These are really cute and both kid and design-friendly, which is something we don't have enough of in this world. They would be such a great gift for a mom who's about to go back to work and send her kid off to daycare or parent's day out for the first time.  They'd also be awesome for traveling with your wee ones.  It's just nice to see some stylish kid-designs for once.  Of course, I did a whole mood board around the <a href="http://www.littlebeanshop.com/Nap-Mat-White-Floral-Polka-Dot-p/nap-001.htm">white floral nap mat</a>, which I think is my favorite, but ask me again in 10 minutes.  <br /><br /><br /><div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 600px;"><div style="position: relative;"><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/little_girls_room_inspired_bean/set?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=128435757" target="_blank"><img alt="Little Girls Room inspired by Little Bean" border="0" force="1" height="531" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/6kKd8TU2SzIaPxnFSUt1YA/cid/128435757/id/juAV7WUL5BGhSBRDtfvecw/size/c600x531.jpg" title="Little Girls Room inspired by Little Bean" width="600" /></a></div></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><small><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/little_girls_room_inspired_bean/set?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=128435757" target="_blank"></a><br /></small></div><div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 600px;"><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=112418283" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img force="1" height="50" hspace="4" src="http://ak1.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-thing/size/s/tid/112418283.jpg" title="White chandelier" vspace="4" width="50" /></a><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=97371410" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img force="1" height="50" hspace="4" src="http://ak1.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-thing/size/s/tid/97371410.jpg" title="Coral throw pillow" vspace="4" width="50" /></a><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=111196301" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img force="1" height="50" hspace="4" src="http://ak2.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-thing/size/s/tid/111196301.jpg" title="Valour Daybed" vspace="4" width="50" /></a><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/thing?.embedder=8728156&.svc=blogger&id=62736159" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img force="1" height="50" hspace="4" src="http://ak2.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-thing/size/s/tid/62736159.jpg" title="8 oz.

I'm not just saying that it's my new fave because their house is in it.  I actually really like the magazine.  It's very interiors heavy, which I love, and the articles really do a great job of answering the questions I would have about a room pictured.  Isn't that all we ever really want from our shelter magazines?! Pretty pictures and someone to walk us through them.  <br /><br />Buut the fact that their house is in the current issue does give them points on my book for having a good eye ;)  <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWDIP5X52odX-0BFKQuCAsa9m1_n-cq_hPdry7ths6SnsdX0Lt0TS0MNNi5EYIXG-KUW7Wjhyphenhyphend12-Z46y7IejTzFLKlbcbDX2-ps7JB2wQOcujZhYC3qLu6_MU0Y1BXUWH-yR7aeOdvCY/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.02.07+AM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="413" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWDIP5X52odX-0BFKQuCAsa9m1_n-cq_hPdry7ths6SnsdX0Lt0TS0MNNi5EYIXG-KUW7Wjhyphenhyphend12-Z46y7IejTzFLKlbcbDX2-ps7JB2wQOcujZhYC3qLu6_MU0Y1BXUWH-yR7aeOdvCY/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.02.07+AM.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The sweetest little monkey jumpin' on the bed, oooh that wallpaper.</td></tr></tbody></table><br />I've been waiting patiently for someone to properly photograph it so I can share it with you.  My iphone skillz just wouldn't cut it so I never asked.  I knew it would only be a matter of time.  It's too fun not to share.  <br /><br />It is the cutest, happiest home!  I love that they took an older bungalow, which might've been torn down and replaced with some gigantic monstrosity, and made it new and cool again.  I also love that every detail has a meaning or a story or was thoughtfully selected.  There's nothing in that house that they don't love.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTWFaTp-tiUqttkp5dm3AVb37XfQBUHiF9iWoqp_dhzQmT3Dzkfwqc5IYaThuKYc4RGTF5RfFkuDL65LG2fGMpSxJ3ivpvzlL8I4VuaXm3QDMdXswiy33PZkqEorxQBpBGpNZ-EXpp8gw/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.00.28+AM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTWFaTp-tiUqttkp5dm3AVb37XfQBUHiF9iWoqp_dhzQmT3Dzkfwqc5IYaThuKYc4RGTF5RfFkuDL65LG2fGMpSxJ3ivpvzlL8I4VuaXm3QDMdXswiy33PZkqEorxQBpBGpNZ-EXpp8gw/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.00.28+AM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEioBPqnEUklysHbjBA9CBzzkWd1Asa9vWqDyvuVJ9bFPGP6qj_xGQCdNo9pAVuIsCoO3mJAl76WuvHkkhZeKdMBb5v5K37K-7xe5plq_sKJlugDtyJ1R7FwDJcbaXOyqxbnRO1vm9dhU/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.01.00+AM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEioBPqnEUklysHbjBA9CBzzkWd1Asa9vWqDyvuVJ9bFPGP6qj_xGQCdNo9pAVuIsCoO3mJAl76WuvHkkhZeKdMBb5v5K37K-7xe5plq_sKJlugDtyJ1R7FwDJcbaXOyqxbnRO1vm9dhU/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.01.00+AM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTmQHMyjMB2_xugb9kChKZ8E6lEtuA24vxWlCT8rblnafk2IaRq2slaGXNd0yXW4SfspALAiBd0CcU7GYGhRr4F5VO4Xp2YUOeAwTyRD0BqqAoy9B5C_gzso32ytNOFjVimuj0ms2u2OA/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.01.08+AM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="408" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTmQHMyjMB2_xugb9kChKZ8E6lEtuA24vxWlCT8rblnafk2IaRq2slaGXNd0yXW4SfspALAiBd0CcU7GYGhRr4F5VO4Xp2YUOeAwTyRD0BqqAoy9B5C_gzso32ytNOFjVimuj0ms2u2OA/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.01.08+AM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt6z8xzEaMeHfLXSYwvOlC7Ygr7mho2FkzO-gGdVrL_WzU08kHen-pRxjoMM_Nr0VN4UQbx4Q2TEiuj-YrCq3bVzBBDxgl7xlhD00nSkGktSG98Lcbkiu4W9dVL03KLnRqZatzdn_vNbI/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.02.13+AM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt6z8xzEaMeHfLXSYwvOlC7Ygr7mho2FkzO-gGdVrL_WzU08kHen-pRxjoMM_Nr0VN4UQbx4Q2TEiuj-YrCq3bVzBBDxgl7xlhD00nSkGktSG98Lcbkiu4W9dVL03KLnRqZatzdn_vNbI/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-04-21+at+9.02.13+AM.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />There's more!
